    Welcome to Howard Place, a rare three-unit compound tucked into the heart of Pasadena’s highly coveted Normandie Heights neighborhood.? This distinctive property blends classic character with modern versatility across three beautifully arranged residences, set on an expansive lot with two separate entrances offering privacy and flexibility. The main house features three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with a bright, open layout that’s perfect for comfortable everyday living. The generous living and dining areas flow into a functional kitchen, creating a warm and welcoming home environment. Beyond the main residence sits a charming two-bedroom, two-bath back house, thoughtfully designed for comfort and independence. With its own entrance, private yard space, and updated finishes, it’s ideal for extended family, guests, or as a long-term rental. Completing the compound is a character-filled studio, brimming with personality and potential. Whether used as a creative retreat, home office, or additional income-producing rental unit, this space adds yet another layer of opportunity. Outside, the large lot provides room to garden, gather, or simply enjoy the serene Pasadena setting, framed by mature trees and the neighborhood’s classic charm. With its multi-unit layout, generous outdoor space, and desirable location near the shops and cafés along North Lake Avenue, Howard Place offers the perfect combination of lifestyle, investment, and enduring Pasadena character.
